“…A surgeon often gets to deal with operative complications like abscess, wet gangrene, necrotizing fasciitis etc and they often need hospitalization. Studies from India also have shown that the major amputation most commonly is seen in type 1 diabetic foot complications [18,19] . In Kalaivani et al series [19] , 85.7% of all major amputation has type 1 diabetic foot complication.…”

Diabetic foot can be considered as an enigma in view of its complexity. Various attempts have been made over decades to give a best classification for diabetic foot. The popular classifications for diabetic foot are Wagner's classification and its derivative, the University of Texas classification. Many researchers and consensus have often recommended them without realizing that these classifications aimed for ulcers. Amit Jain's classification for diabetic foot complication is the new simple, easy and supreme classification that has for the first time included all the lesions in diabetic foot thereby rendering it a complete and a universal classification for diabetic foot.

There are numerous scoring system used in different parts of the world and most of them are for diabetic foot ulcers only with Amit Jain’s surgical scoring system being the first such scoring for diabetic foot complications. This study aims to validate the Amit Jain’s scoring system in predicting the risk of major amputation in diabetic foot complications. A retrospective analysis was done in Department of General Surgery of Raja Rajeswari medical college, Bengaluru, India. The study period was from January 2018 to December 2019. All the patients who underwent surgeries for diabetic foot complications in our department were included in the study. A total of 47 patients were included in this study. Majority of patients (76.6%) were males 61.7% of patients had diabetes mellitus of less than 10 years duration. Abscess was the most common pathological lesion seen in the foot affecting 36.17%. Most of the patients (59.6%) with diabetic foot complications had Amit Jain’s surgical score of 6-10 and were in low risk category. 12 patients (25.5%) underwent major amputation in this study and a significant association (P<0.001) was noted between Amit Jain’s surgical scoring and major amputation.
